Sort the following chemicals for their ability to act as an oxidizer. list from strongest to weakest; 1 being strongest, 6 being weakest. 1. 1st k 2. 2nd ag 3. 3rd au 4. 4th cu 5. 5th ni 6. 6th ca

Explanation:

A oxidizing agent or oxidizer is a substance that loses electrons and itself gets reduced.

Also, a substance or element that has more positive value of or reduction potential will act as a strong oxidizer because it will easily get reduced.

Therefore, standard reduction potential of the given elements is as follows.

K = -2.92

Ag = 1.83

Au = 0.80

Cu = 0.16

Ni = -0.23

Ca = -2.76

Hence, Ag has the highest positive value and calcium has the lowest. Thus, list from strongest to weakest oxidizer are as follows.

                       Ag > Au > Cu > Ni > Ca > K

space exploration has led to the development and technological improvement of many everyday items. (if this answer is wrong i will find the right answer) : )
